Level 1 Player

Chapter 45 monster wave

Korea has completely overcome the aftermath of the Second Cataclysm.

Ordinary people returned to work, and players worked hard to stabilize the dungeon.

A level 45-50 orc dungeon located near Sinchon Station.

This dungeon was also created after the Second Cataclysm.

However, Orc Dungeon was not very popular with players of the same level.

It was because of the habit of grouping Orcs.

However, on the contrary, it was one of the hunting grounds frequented by high-level players for soloing.

Level 59 player Jinyoung Park was also one of the players who came to the Orc Dungeon for soloing.

Good luck!

See you!

In the dungeon, the sound of pigs squealing resounded continuously.

Jinyoung Park slaughtered the Orcs, wielding a great sword engulfed in flames.

Park Jin-young has not joined the guild yet.

She couldn’t even make a fixed party.

The only way he could level up and grow was by entering these low-level dungeons and catching monsters.

In order to increase his efficiency, Park Jin-young chose the area near his dimensional gate as a hunting ground.

Because of that, the orcs who crossed the dimension gate and entered the dungeon could not even resist properly and their throats were blown by Park Jin-young’s greatsword.

‘I wish I could work here too.’

Park Jin-young looked at the players who worked as security guards and looked envious.

When the place of work was decided here, they caught monsters and fulfilled their duty deadlines, and it was a one stone two group.

But it was an impossible wish.

I had to be level 80 to work here as a security guard.

The problem is that once you reach level 80, you can’t get experience by catching orcs.

A lifeguard is a watchman in case of an emergency.

As such, he assigned a player with a much higher level than the dungeon level.

It was an arrangement that contained the government’s idea to not think about hunting and to be faithful to the duty of a security guard.

‘I’ll just let you hunt while standing as a security guard.’

Park Jin-young, who was thinking about his dissatisfaction with the government, saw a group of orcs coming out of the dimensional gate.

Jinyoung Park cleared his thoughts and rushed towards the orcs who had exited the dimension gate.

Whoops!

The skill was activated and Park Jin-young’s greatsword was engulfed in flames.

Park Jin-young swung his sword as hard as he could.

Kwajik!

Red blood gushed out with the sound of bones and flesh being shattered.

‘uh?’

Park Jin-young looked down at his chest with a bewildered expression.

A huge ax wielded by an orc was stuck in his chest.

‘What is this… … .’

I couldn’t quite understand what had happened.

No, I lost consciousness before I could understand.

“what? You’re dead!”

“What the hell did you do that you got attacked by the orcs?”

The security guards got up from their seats and drew their weapons.

But she wasn’t too upset.

She just thought the player had been distracted.

But the body had to be recovered.

The security guards tasked with guarding the dimensional gates drew their weapons and rushed towards the orcs.

Scratch!

The orc’s ax blew the lifeguard’s head off in one blow.

“uh?”

A security guard, bewildered by his colleague’s death, quickly tried to spread the distance.Whik!

Then the ax flew towards him.

Left!

The ax split the lifeguard’s body in two, from head to groin.

The orcs, who had dealt with the two security guards in an instant, began to move toward the dungeon exit.

The dimensional gate continued to pour out orcs.

And the orcs who exited the dimension gate moved toward the other dimension gate in an orderly manner.

The orcs that had previously inhabited the dungeon retreated to the left and right when they saw the new orcs that had appeared, put their heads on the ground and trembled.

The players who were hunting the Orcs saw the Orcs marching in an orderly manner and rushed at them, but after a few seconds they were scattered into shredded flesh and scattered on the floor of the dungeon.

The orc horde soon arrived at the opposite dimension gate.

The orcs slaughtered the security guards guarding the dimensional gate in an instant.

And passed through the dimensional gate connected with modern society.

wow!

An orc that came out of the dungeon let out a loud roar.

The orcs who had left the dungeon with him scattered all over the place and started a bloody slaughter.

* * *

After hunting, Hyunseong and Lucia came out of the dungeon.

Wow!

However, as soon as they left the dungeon, the emergency pager vibrated.

“what?”

Hyunseong picked up his smartphone with a puzzled expression and called the Players Association.

However, the call was not connected.

“Master, it seems that a monster wave has occurred.”

Lucia held out her smartphone to Hyunseong and said.

There was an article titled ‘Emergency Breaking News, Sinchon Station Monster Wave’.

The article was posted 2 hours ago.

“No, haven’t you been able to suppress it yet?”

Few countries are as well prepared for the monster wave as Korea.

That Korea is not a high-level dungeon, and has not been able to subdue the monster wave that occurred in a low-level dungeon for 2 hours.

“It seems that a proper group of orcs have crossed the dimensional gate, not just a bunch of idiots.”

“What do you mean?”

After hearing Lucia’s words, Hyunseong sensed something.

“Didn’t I tell you before, monsters keep growing and getting stronger too.”

“You are saying that the orcs that came over this time are one of those who have grown up like that.”

“Orcs are the most human-like monsters. As such, the level gap between objects is also large. Orcs in the non-combat class are normal-grade monsters, but even if they become warrior-grade, they become rare-grade monsters.”

At Lucia’s words, Hyunseong’s expression hardened.

“Are you there too?”

“of course. Warchief and Chieftain are Hero-grade monsters, and, in rare cases, Warchief-level monsters are Legendary.”

“Can orcs be legendary monsters?”

Hyunseong asked in surprise.

Orcs are typical low-level monsters.

Their intelligence is low and their fighting power is low.

Its only advantage is that it forms groups.

I’ve never seen a rare orc, but suddenly it’s legendary.

“I witnessed it myself.”

At Lucia’s words, Hyunseong was at a loss for words.

* * *

early in the event.

The Korean government and the Players Association did not take the monster wave that occurred at Sinchon Station so seriously.

Isn’t the protruding monster an orc, the pronoun of a low level?

The Players Association urgently convened guilds and players near Sinchon Station to subdue the orc horde.

The army was also mobilized in three regiments.

But after they were wiped out in an instant, they had no choice but to revise their stereotypes.Among the guilds that responded to the emergency call to suppress the orc horde, there were also two middle-level guilds who went to and from hero grade dungeons as if they were eating.

However, two medium-sized guilds with an average level of 300 guild members collapsed.

When the situation became like this, the government and the player association recognized the seriousness of the situation and issued an emergency call to rankers and high-level players.

The army was also mobilized with division-level troops.

High-level players, including rankers, flocked to Sinchon Station one after another.

And the orc horde subjugation began.

“How strong the orcs are.”

“Let’s wipe it out at once!”

The morale of rankers and high-level players was high.

Currently, more than half of the Korean rankers are in other countries.

It was because he was a member of the UN Allied Forces and was playing the role of recovering human territory that had been taken away by monsters.

Naturally, the power of rankers and high-level players had to be lower than usual.

But the opponent is only an orc.

The players believed that they could not be defeated.

‘I can’t think of it easily… … .’

Hyunseong, who was preparing for battle with the players directly under the association, was not very bright.

The words he had heard from Lucia kept running through his mind.

‘The minimum hero grade orcs will be included unconditionally.’

That was basic.

‘I wish there were no Legendary Orcs.’

Legendary monster orc warchief.

If he gets stuck, the problem gets worse.

As can be seen from the Kyushu crisis in Japan, humanoid monsters with excellent intelligence are quite difficult opponents.

Among those tricky opponents, is there a legendary monster with natural disaster-level destructive power?

In the worst case, Korea might have to give up Seoul just as Japan gave up Kyushu.

However, among them, Hyunseong was the only one who realized the seriousness of the situation.

Rankers and high-level players belonging to the giant guild, as well as players directly under the association, were preparing for subjugation without much tension.

All of this was due to stereotypes about orcs.

‘There is no Yoona… … .’

Shin Yoon-ah has not returned to Korea since she was sent to Kyushu, Japan.

After the UN gave up Kyushu, it immediately turned its troops to the United States and Europe.

Yoona Shin must be working hard with monsters in the US or Europe by now.

“Start suppression!”

The dispatch order was issued.

The players formed their own groups and entered the city.

Hyunseong and the players directly under the association were located at the rear.

It was a natural move because the players directly under the association had relatively inferior skills compared to the players belonging to the giant guild.

The Players Association currently identified Hyunseong’s skill as mid-to-late 200th level.

“Fire shooting!”

Doo doo doo doo!

The fire from the soldiers on board the armored car poured like rain.

The players did not stand still.

“Fire ranged skills!”

“Ice Storm!”

“Thunderbolt!”

See you!

Orcs hit by bullets and skills screamed and died.

wow!

Enraged orcs rushed towards the subjugation party.

visor! visor!

Crack!

“Kill!”A fierce battle ensued.

However, the Orcs could not surpass the tankers and melee dealers who were at the forefront.

The subjugation squad, led by rankers and high-level players, began to clear the orcs at an incredibly fast pace.

The soldiers who were protected by the players continued to shoot stably.

‘I must have worried too much.’

Hyunseong, who watched the lead performance, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Hyunseong, who is at the back of the ranks, has never been able to blow a skill toward a monster.

Orcs were quite strong.

Most of them were rare grades, and there were also a significant number of hero grade orcs.

However, no matter how much he did, he could not become an opponent of the subjugation squad, which consisted of rankers and high-level players.

Kuwaaaah!

While the subjugation battle was going smoothly, a huge roar suddenly erupted.

“ね!”

“what?”

Hearing the roar, the body of the subjugation team hardened in an instant.

It was a wide-area mental attack skill.

-You have been caught by the Mental Intimidation Skill Walk Cry.

-The body engulfed by the pressure falls into a rigid state for 10 seconds.

-Passive skill Unyielding spirit is activated.

– Perfectly resisted the Walk Cry skill.

‘It’s the worst.’

Hyunseong’s expression hardened.

Rankers and high-level players, who had relaxed expressions on their faces, were also bewildered and did not know what to do.

The power of the spiritual attack skill was fully realized during the Imoogi raid.

wow!

Orcs rushed like angry wolves towards the players who had become rigid.

“Gagging!”

“Aaaah!”

In an instant, the victims began to appear one after another.

It wasn’t that there weren’t any rankers or high-level players who didn’t get the Walk Lie skill, but the number was too small.

To make matters worse, the Orcs became more aggressive after the Walk Cry skill was used.

Orcs were zealots who were not afraid of death.

Even if a part of his body fell off, even if a spear or a knife was pierced into his body, he continued to attack as long as he did not stop breathing.

The players began to push.

However, the players who got out of the rigid state started to counterattack again.

Kuwaaaah!

At that moment, the Walk Cry skill exploded again.

“Ahh!”

“help me!”

In an instant, the ranks collapsed.

Players who were fighting in camps began to mix with the orc hordes.

Angry Orcs ignored the tankers and rushed at the soldiers, ranged dealers and healers who were safely firing from the rear.

The worst has happened.

* * *

The subjugation battle, which had been progressing steadily with a tight siege network, suddenly turned into a melee battle.

It was not the players who had an advantage in this melee, but the monsters, the Orcs.

wow!

Kwajik!

The orc’s ax split the healer’s body in two.

A tank came up late and used a taunt skill, but it didn’t work.

The orcs were different from just before.

After the Walk Cry skill was used, the Orcs were running wild like wild beasts.

The two walk-cry skills completely ruined the formation of the subjugation team.

As a result, the orcs also rushed at Hyunseong, who was behind him.

Scratch!

Hyunseong swung his sword at lightning speed and slashed the orc’s head.

‘I can’t use the breath of the Black Lightning Dragon.’

Allies and orcs are in a mixed situation.

If you misuse the Black Lightning Dragon’s Breath skill, your allies will also suffer damage.

Hyunseong swung his dragon blood sword and quickly cleared the orcs.

wow!

At that moment, the walk-cry skill exploded again, and an orc with a majestic body reaching 3 meters appeared on the battlefield.

He was holding in his hands a huge ax commensurate with his physique.

Whik!

A giant orc that leapt high and jumped right into the middle of the battlefield.

Kwajik!

One tank was crushed by a giant orc.

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

“Aww!”

“Uh-huh!”

The giant orc started slaughtering players indiscriminately, wielding an ax in both hands.

The rankers jumped out to face the giant orcs.

Aww!

The moment the ranker’s shield and the ax wielded by the giant orc collided, an explosion sounded like a bomb.

And the ranker’s body was pushed back.

But the ranker was not alone.

Other rankers rushed towards the giant orc in succession.

Aww! Aww!

A ranker and a giant orc collided, causing a continuous explosion.

The results were truly shocking.

The rankers were being pushed insanely.

wow!

Then a group of orcs appeared and attacked the rankers.

They were hero grade orcs.

The rankers fell into a situation of beleaguered.

In a difficult situation just to block the giant Orcs, even hero-grade Orcs suddenly appeared and attacked them.

High-level players, who were engaged in a close battle with the excited orcs like a berserk, were not in a situation where they could help the rankers.

The rankers fell into a crisis of desperation in an instant.

‘Damn it.’

‘I could die here.’

‘Why are orcs so strong?’

The rankers tried to get rid of their bodies somehow.

However, he could not escape from the giant Orcs because of the heroic orcs besieging him everywhere.

Crazy!

At that time, a jet-black lightning bolt exploded on the giant orc.

wow!

The giant orc let out a painful scream.

Shoo!

At that moment, someone appeared from behind the giant orc.

It was Hyunseong.

Hyunseong stabbed the dragon blood sword at the giant orc.

Left!

‘It’s gone.’

It was planned to pierce the heart with one blow.

But it failed.The giant orc reacted too quickly.

Hyunseong’s attack only slightly cut off the backskin of the giant orc.

Wheeik!

An ax loaded with mighty power flew towards Hyunseong.

Hyunseong blocked the ax using the dragon blood sword as a shield.

Break!

The dragon blood sword and the ax collided, and Hyunseong’s body was pushed back.

At such Hyunseong, the hero grade Orcs swung their weapons all at once.

Fragile!

A jet-black thunderstorm descended on the hero-grade orcs who flocked to Hyunseong.

Whoa!

The heroic orcs screamed and twisted their bodies.

Scratch!

The dragon blood sword swung lightly and cut off the heads of hero-grade orcs.

Wow!

Angry at the death of his men, a giant orc ran towards Hyunseong.

“Stop it!”

“Ice Storm!”

“Chains of Frost!”

“Shield Stun!”

Rankers’ attacks poured out towards such a large Orc.

With the help of the rankers, Hyunseong narrowly avoided the ax wielded by the giant orc.

With him, the battle resumed again.

However, the situation turned quite unfavorable.

This is because the dead hero-grade orcs have been replaced by other hero-grade orcs.

“We must retreat!”

One of the rankers shouted.

Hyunseong also agreed.

It was not possible to defeat the orc warchief, who was supposed to be of legendary rank, with his current power.

‘The first surprise should have been successful.’

If it had succeeded, it could have stopped breathing in one blow.

Even if it was a Legendary level monster, if its heart was pierced, it would die the same.

Hyunseong and the rankers did their best to reduce the number of hero-grade orcs.

In the process, Hyunseong’s joining became a tremendous strength.

The rankers who gathered to face the orc warchief consisted of tanks and melee dealers.

The long-distance dealers and healers were either killed in battle or fled to the rear.

Tanks have weak attack power.

The melee dealer did not have strong enough attack power to cut the monster’s breath with one blow, although the durability of the deal was high.

But Hyunseong was different.

Hyunseong blocked the attacks of the orcs like a tank, fired quickly and continuously like a melee dealer, and used a skill with powerful power like a ranged dealer.

He didn’t forget to heal the rankers’ injuries by using the intermediate healing series skills.

Hyunseong literally led the battle by filling in the shortcomings of the rankers like an all-round character.

As a result, an escape route was created.

The other players and soldiers also retreated little by little, preparing to retreat.

Wow!

At that moment, the Walk Cry skill exploded again.

Rankers were fine.

All of them were members of the former Imoogi extermination squad.

But for other players, things were different.

“Aaaah!”

“help me!”

In an instant, the number of players decreased dramatically.

The soldiers were almost wiped out.The retreat formation he had barely built with him completely collapsed.

“Aww!”

“Run away!”

Players and soldiers started escaping back and forth.

The orcs chased after such a player and his soldiers.

A massacre unfolded.

Players and soldiers who ran away with their backs mixed in a mess without a proper retreat formation were only tasty prey for the orcs.

“Let’s get out of here!”

One of the rankers shouted.

The tide has already turned.

They endanger themselves as they try to save other players and soldiers.

Crucially, the rankers were also nearly exhausted with their stamina and magic power.

Hyunseong also agreed with that opinion.

It was never a good choice to continue to deal with the orc warchief in this position.

If you do it wrong, you could be completely isolated in the orc horde.

‘Would you like to move together?’

In fact, Hyunseong could fall out at any time.

Because he has the hero-grade space movement skill Blink.

Hyunseong started retreating with the rankers.

But the orc warchief could not stand still.

wow!

The orc warchief roared fiercely and rushed towards Hyunseong and the rankers.

Aww!

A ranker who blocked the attack of the orc warchief with a shield was pushed back helplessly.

The orc warchief’s next target was Hyunseong.

Whik!

The orc warchief’s ax flew towards Hyunseong.

‘Can I?’

Hyunseong suppressed the desire to use the blink skill right away. And he rushed towards the orc chieftain, wielding his dragon blood sword.

At the same time, he deceived himself as Lucia had trained him.

‘Die.’

The difference in power between Hyunseong and the orc warchief was obvious.

The speed was slightly faster with Hyunseong, but the strength was the overwhelming superiority of the orc warchief.

What if you collide head-on without avoiding like this?

either die or become half-dead.

The variables caused by the Book of Immortality or Blink were erased from my mind.

‘die. Die.’

Hyunseong cheated on himself.

-Passive Skill Survival Instinct – Heroic rating is triggered.

Aaaaaaaaah!

With a loud explosion, Hyunseong’s dragon blood sword and the orc warchief’s ax collided head-on.

Surprisingly, Hyunseong didn’t take a single step back.

Rather, the orc warchief was pushed back.

The orc warchief was pushed back little by little, but was never unilaterally overwhelmed.

Hyunseong activated the Blink skill after confirming that the rankers had distanced themselves from the orc warchief.

Shoo!

Hyunseong, who had been fighting the orc warchief, returned to the ranks.

He began the retreat with him.

His heart was heavy.

As Hyunseong retreated, he could see the players and soldiers being brutally slaughtered by the orcs.

Desperate cries for life and the screams of the dying were constantly heard in their ears.

It was like seeing a map of hell.

Hyunseong wields a dragon blood sword and uses skills to save some players and soldiers, but compared to the number of people dying, it’s just new feet of blood.

The good news is that the players and soldiers who were saved like that are escaping the hellish battlefield through the escape route drilled by Hyunseong and the rankers.

By the time Hyunseong and the rankers were almost off the battlefield… … .

‘what?’

I could feel a powerful magical flow from the sky.

“Harm!”

At Hyunseong’s cry, the rankers put on bewildered expressions.

Hyunseong used his blink skill to dodge his body.

The rankers, who heard Hyunseong’s warning, quickly fled.

But not everyone escaped anger.

Aaaaaaaaah!

A storm of flames filled with magical power hit the place where Hyunseong and the rankers were.

The rankers who could not escape were engulfed in flames and turned into a handful of ashes.

The players and soldiers who fled after Hyunseong and the rankers also became ashes.

It was indeed a great power.

Hyunseong looked at the epicenter of magic.

There stood an orc with a wooden staff.

‘There wasn’t a single Legendary Orc.’

Hyunseong clenched his teeth.

No matter how well prepared it is, it is a powerful skill that can wipe out hundreds of high-level players at once.

It was a destructive power that could never be shown unless it was a legendary level monster.

‘Blink.’

Hyunseong used the space movement skill.

The target was an orc with a staff.

– It is a place where the flow of magic is unstable. Active Skill Blink – The activation of hero rank has been cancelled.

‘You’ve been prepared.’

Hyunseong put on a sad expression.

What if I had known of his existence from the beginning?

He probably wasn’t targeting the orc warchief.

wow!

The orc warchief’s roar was heard from behind.

It seemed to have been chasing diligently from the beginning, and eventually arrived near it.

Hyunseong left the battlefield with the surviving rankers.
